Oops, ate too much



Recommended Posts

Well, that was a very unpleasant experience. Of course, I had read it wasn't pleasant by any means but stupidly wasn't eating 'mindfully' and was chatting to my husband while I ate and had one meatball too many (they were tiny teaspoon-sized super soft chicken meatballs).

Anyway, I paid the price quite quickly and am absolutely hating this new way of vomiting. WHY is it just bile, dear god it is revolting!

I didn't get pain so much as just the feeling that something was a bit stuck.

So, lesson learnt, MINDFUL EATING IS A MUST lol

Sorry to hear that Bastian!! That feeling is the worst type of aversive therapy!!!![emoji28][emoji28][emoji28] You never want to experience it ever again and learn REALLY quickly! That's about the only POSITIVE of having had the Lapband!! More horrible and frequent "stuck" incidents! Now since my sleeve, I've not experienced it once because my psyche has automatically learned to mindfully eat (not by my will but by the force of the incidents[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]).
It gets better and easier as our minds pay attention to cues!🧡🧡🧡

Absolutely gross aversion therapy, best kind I guess?!

Funny thing is I thought perhaps I had no pouch at all because I hadn't had any issues lol AND not really sure of my anatomy now due to having a sleeve first which went 'wrong' then an emergency bypass a few days later.

My surgeon only leaves a 1cm wide sleeve which is pretty minuscule, so I was like erm how on earth did he make a pouch with what was left?

Well, I now know there is definitely some kind of pouchiness going on after meatball-gate LOL

I spent yesterday pretty uncomfortable all day so not sure if I aggravated my 'pouch' and made it swell a bit from the vomiting, but nothing went down easily yesterday, even fluids weren't great and had pain all day. So Just had an early night and slept it off :)

Oh no, I hope your feeling much better. It's so easily done. I have to keep remi doing myself to slow down and take my time when eating. Its hard when I'm at work and have a limited time for my lunch..xxx

I still to this day have trouble eating with a group because I am not mindfully eating and something always makes me feel stuck. Guess part of my 21 year old sleeve is still working.

I can eat the small Activia Greek yogurt cups but the full-size tubs are TOO MUCH at a time. Precious Pouch must be VERY PETITE to not hold THAT MUCH!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
